Series 18: Photographs, 1890s-2002, inclusive

Scope and Contents

The series contains photographs (primarily prints) dating from the 1890s to 2002. Church social activities and groups are well represented in the collection (such as the Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, and dramatic groups). Pastors Magary and Knight also feature prominently in the series. This series also includes one digital file, a digitized version of an early 1900s photograph of a woman and child.

Please note that additional photographs can be found throughout the collection, and are typically filed with other documents which are thematically related. For instance, Sub-series 5.1: Rev. Theodore L. Cuyler includes numerous portraits of Rev. Cuyler, and photographs of the Underwood family can be found in Sub-series 13.2: Underwood family and Korean Congregation
